Opening November 25th - SCRIPT #58

“...Alana Valentine however, is far from silent. Rather, she is one of the most prolific, politically potent and principled writers of her generation. And perhaps more than most playwrights she understands the revolutionary capacity of theatre within community..”

Angela Betzien, 2015

At the heart of Soft Revolution: Shafana and Aunt Sarrinah is the story of a young Australian-born Muslim woman and an intergenerational clash with her own Aunt. Based on interviews with Afghani/ Australian Muslim women and produced with the support of a large number of Muslim women from a diversity of Muslim cultures in Australia, this play will compel audiences with its portrait of women who are articulate, highly educated and deeply spiritual.
